Racial bias results in nonprofit organizations led by people of color receiving less money than those led by whites. Thus, philanthropy ends up reinforcing the very social ills it says it is trying to overcome. We offer a framework of the barriers leaders of color face when securing funding, along with practical advice for foundation staff. (SSIR.org)
